A Life in Verse
Tony Conran and friends will present readings from his latest publication What Brings You Here So Late? – a single, autobiographical poem which movingly evokes what it was like to grow up with cerebral palsy in wartime Wales, then being a student, poet and Catholic in Bangor, the Thatcher years and finally facing surgery to halt increasing paralysis – and also from recent work.
Readers: Gwilym Morus, Pauline Down, Sheila Brook and Lesley Conran
Bydd Tony Conran a chyfeillion yn cyflwyno darlleniadau o’i gyhoeddiad newydd What Brings You Here So Late? – cerdd hunangofianol sy’n gwysio’n gyffrous y profiad o dyfu fyny gyda pharlys ymennydd yng Nghymru yn ystod rhyfel, yna’n fyfyriwr, yn fardd a’n Gatholig ym Mangor, blynyddoedd Thatcher ac yna’n wynebu llawdriniaeth i atal parlys cynhyddol – a hefyd o waith diweddar.
Darllenwyr: Gwilym Morus, Pauline Down, Sheila Brook a Lesley Conran.
